Replaced the odd guide rod in my older S.A. micro compact. Much easier disassembly and assembly. Definitely more robust than the original.

Drop in fit on my colt defender .45, big difference in shootability feels smoother. Guide rod needs a drop or two of oil to quiet the spring, overall great design for the 3” 1911

I followed EGW’s instructional video on you tube and was able to install the guide rod without difficulty. The busing and single spring have enhanced the performance of my Para Wart Hog. This was a good purchase.
